When asking, “What is one of your #favoritethings about Los Alamos,” one answer is undeniably more common with everyone – residents, commuters, visitors, and those simply passing through – “The spectacular views.”
It’s unexpected—the first visit to Los Alamos, New Mexico. It starts with the drive, as you wind through canyons framed by golden cliffs on your journey to the mesa tops. As you round the last curve, you are struck by 360 degrees of spectacular scenery, framed by the Jemez Mountains and nature's playground, perched here at 7,400 feet on the mesa top.
Stop to take it in. Breathe deep the fresh mountain air. Let go of your worries and let the light and landscape fill your senses for one moment. Whether you see the views every day or are experiencing them for the first time, you will be changed.
